Anglian Hall, Lockerbie Academy

Period:

Early Medieval

Description:

The trenches for the timbers of an Anglian hall were recovered
during excavations ahead of the construction of a new Academy a
Lockerbie. Also visible are the post-holes of an earlier hall on a
slightly different allignment. It is not known whether the earlier
hall is also Anglian, or perhaps a British one from the former
occupants before the Northumbrian takeover of south-west Scotland
in the first half of the 7th century.
